Imagine how much more effective the ending of Halloween would have been, if we never got any sequels. Not knowing anything at all, of where Myers disappeared to, or what happened to him.
So first I have to say that Jason has often (more so in later sequels) been put forth as a supernatural being. He's a dead (rotting) man walking for goodness sake. So I'm not sure what you mean with your point about him. I agree Myers was portrayed as being being pretty human in the first Halloween untill the end where he catches six bullets in the chest and then disappears. These new sequels are riding off that film and it seems natural that they might want to dive more into that supernatural aspect.
Found it. That's why it scared me so much when I was a kid. He was the boogeyman at the end. I couldn't even remember the opening to the movie when we see him as a kid committing murder. I probably saw Halloween first on TV like so many horror movies. And caught it during the middle. When I got back into horror movies I noticed so much that I didn't before. But I'll always say that Halloween should have gone like Carpenter wanted with a different story for each Halloween. That's why I like Halloween 3 so much. I liked it as a kid and still do now.
According to their Facebook banner, Halloween Kills will be streaming on Peacock same day as theatrical.
Unfortunately I might have to see this at home with how things are going over here. At least the option is there, unlike Candyman.
There is a zero percent chance I'm missing seeing Michael Myers on the big screen. But I am glad it's going to stream same day.....hopefully that will thin out the theater crowd opening night
I have kids under 5 who won't be able to be vaccinated for who knows how long. So I'm staying home until that can happen and will be watching this on Peacock. If I didn't have kids I would go see everything currently out in the theaters, but I'm not gonna risk them so I can go see a few movies.
